By reference to another column it
will be seen that VIM. Fl. Tincher
and Frank Miller will reduce the
price of liquors and cigars to 124
cents. The reduction in price will
not in any way effect the quality Of
the goods, and they will in the fu-
ture as they have in the past, keep
only the finest brands obtainable.

IF the southern flags belong to the men who
captured them, and not to the nation, as some
OF the bloody.shlrters maintain, some Of them,
at least, should be In the possession of the
$4,000 United States pensioners now residing In
GeImany.-Aieeandria Ga=e1e.
AS the report Of thecommissiener Of pen
sions for the fiscal year ending June 80,
1886, shows that only 1,69s pensions are
paid to pensioners residing out Of the
United States, the Gazette must allude to
pensioners paid by the German government.
But the statement is about as reliable as
can usuolly be found in such papers as the

WOMEN THE BEST.
They Pass n Better Examination Than
the Men.

OF the fifty seven clerks In the Office of
the quartermaster general who up to date
have been examined for promotion under
the new civil service rules thirty were men
and twenty-seven women. The examina-
tion of the papers shows that six men and
two women failed TO attain the minimum Of
75 out OF a possible 100. Commissioner
0berly yesterday said that the women, as
rule, psssedG much more satisfactory OK
animation than the men, and reached higher
averages. A fact that Is regarded by the
commission as very significant is that the
marking on efficiency by the quartermaster
general made prior TO the examination, and
Kept secret until after the result Of the ex-
animation had been determined, agreed al
most exactly with the markings Of the eX-
aminers. There was only one exception.
This result Is highly satisfactory to the com
mission, who regard II as a refutation of
the charge that in these examinations
fayohtism would control the rating for
efficiency.

Those Crossing the Ocean Not Re
atricted as TO Passengers.

The Treasury Department has received
communication from Mr.. Nathaniel Mckay,
of New York, in regard to the alleged over
crowding OF foreign steam vessels, in which
he represents that the general law provid-
ing that such vessels shall be provided with
life boats and such other life saving appli-
ances as will best secure safety Of passengers
IN case OF disaster is constantly being vlo.
lated. He admits that there Is no special
provision Of law relative to the overerowd-
iDg OF ocean steamers, but says ample au-
thority TO prohibit such practice would
seem to be conferred In the general law,
which requires that steam vessels shall be
provided with life boats, RATS, and such
other life saving appliances as may be
necessary for the safety Of their passengers.
He holds that II is rs much the duty OF an
inspector TO prevent the departure OF a
steamer whose decks are dangerously
crowded with passengers as II is to prevent
vessel going TO sea without q rudder or
sufficient steering gear.

SECRETARY MANNING, in his last report
to Congress, said that most dangerous
power was given to the Secretary when he
was enabled, and really authorized and
directed, to interfere in the money
market, and increase or decrease the vol
ume of currency at will. 1t is claimed that
Secretary Fairchild holds similar views,
and deprecates the necessity Of such action
on his part. There is mono. The law OF
March IS, 1869, is plain aud has not been
repealed. The Secretary has the right to
redeem any of the United States bonds now
out. He knows that the surplus in the
/ treasury will be about $l0,0OO,00o every
month. Let him now "call" $l0), ,C0O,OJo

Interference which will affect the market
in the interest Of Wall street "bulls" or
"bears." Every one will know In advance
that on the first OF each month that IN l:h
money will be added to the currency OF th,.
country. That is the way to reduce the
surplus and to avoid the suspicion of ma
nipulatiDg the money m ,rket in the interest
of apy one.

Is almost all gone. AS We
do not intend to get any
more this season, we mark
